Problematic networking was one of the main reasons why I went back to
native hardware (in the form of a Pi). I can't count the number of
times I made multiple attempts to connect 0.8.11/4.02 each morning; it
always worked eventually, but I never understood why. It reminded me
of a friend who once owned a BSA Gold Star, and said that he had to
retune the carb every time the sun went behind a cloud...
